Il Melograno Vacation Home
Typical dwelling partly excavated and partly built, with splendid views of the enchanted scenery of the Sassi of Matera. It is located in a pedestrian area, so it is not accessible by car, but there is a convenient paid parking lot a 2-minute walk away and free parking along the road a little further away. Close to the most important places to visit! Access to the apartments is on a comfortable ground floor but the view from the balcony of apartment number 1 is on a high floor (magic of the Sassi of Matera!)

Situata nella splendida cornice degli antichi Sassi di Matera, sito del Patrimonio dell'UNESCO, Grotta Gea è il risultato di un attento restauro conservativo.

La struttura consente di godere della massima privacy grazie all'esclusività del soggiorno.
